The Sri

Laxmi Venkatesh Temple

The Keralite temple is an amalgam of stonework, woodwork, stuccowork and painting - harmoniously blended into a structure vibrant with traditions of the region. The woodwork here is of great importance, and it gives the essential verve and character to the Kerala temple silhouette.
